I Still Care

I have finally realized it’s time to let go Took me to loose a friend to realize what I already know I’ve apologized for my actions to you with no avail Which leaves me to do what I do best which is to bail Kicking my own butt once again for letting you go Wish I would have just stayed still and waited you know But I can’t continue to dwell on the past Or that thing I thought I had, but couldn’t make it last Funny how we realize our flaws when it’s much too late I really fell hard just realized it a little to late You have always been what you said u were honest & true I just had no idea what I was dealing with in you See when you loose trust for people that rule applies to them all I just really had no idea, it was too late to call My actions were not to my pleasing but it’s still no reason Can’t expect you to march to the beat of my drum Especially when instead of marching I run Funny how we fear our own heart Well at least for me that’s where it starts Let a person get in close I wouldn’t Dare Until we start to work with that emotion called care Too busy moving forward but still looking back Kind of threw everything I had going on off track Yes, I have been broken but it’s time to move on Hate that I had to clam up though and do you wrong Why do I feel like I’m still singing the same old Song Must be a hint to change the tune…. Yea I know that’s what I need to do I just had to say something to you though… Even if was only those 2 words to you
